Here’s a question I want you to ask yourself and be honest about when you answer it…

“What type of life are you living?”

No matter how you answered this question realize that you have just taken the next step in the right direction.

Why?

Because when you take the time and look at your current situation it actually allows you to use what is going on in your life right now as a guide to help you transform your life to where you want it to be.

Even if what’s going on in your life right now is nowhere near the way you want it, just know that one fact alone is there to get you to shift your current situation to where you want it to be.

It is also getting you to be true to yourself.

The type of life you would love to live happens when you are being true and authentic to yourself.

Nowadays so many people are throwing around the phrases, “your authentic self”, “authenticity”, and a number of others that have to do with you being authentic and true to yourself.

Being your authentic self has everything to do with you embracing both sides of who you are. These both sides include you being happy and sad, saint and sinner, nice and mean, plus all of the other pairs of equal and opposite traits that every human
being has.

This is also what makes you the perfect person you are.

And yes there is such a thing as you being perfect…

And yes there is such a thing as living in a perfect world, because we do.

The perfection that most people say is not possible is represented
by the fact that both you and the world are two sided.

Those people who say, “you aren’t perfect” or “no one is perfect”, or “the world isn’t perfect” are still looking for a one sided world and expecting “perfection” to be only the positive side and then when the “other side” shows up they’ll say no one or the world isn’t perfect.

So what does this have to do with the type of life you are living?

The type of life you want to live is really right in front of you right now. You just may not be recognizing it entirely.

If you see your life right now as not going the way you want, look for the opposite (the way you want it) and you’ll see it in some form…

But it is there for sure.

It may seem a little fuzzy now but it certainly comes more into focus once you really get in touch with what’s most
important to you.

You are here to live a life of, “I love tos” and “I’m inspired tos” because it is your birthright.

As part of that birthright is the fact that you were born into brilliance and genius.

You are put on this Earth to shine and rise and to really share your unique gifts with the world…

And it all starts by really getting to know the amazing and magnificent person that you are.
